    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Jan. 31, 2017)
    If you are not familiar with the Tapir, you will probably think that it’s a strange-looking animal. It somewhat looks like a pig, a cow, and even an elephant. This species is actually related to donkeys and zebras, but they are more closely related to horses and the rhinoceros. Tapirs are about the size of a donkey, so they are not that big. They are about three feet tall up to the shoulder and their length runs to about six feet. Their size and weight actually varies, as this depends on their particular species. They have small eyes located at the sides of their heads. Their ears are oval shaped and stand erect all the time. It’s interesting to note that their ears have white tips. The nose of a Tapir is its most interesting body part yet. It’s like a short trunk (like an elephant’s nose) and it’s fleshy and flexible. It doesn’t have any bones in it, that’s why it can easily move in different directions. It’s actually made of soft tissues, and the Tapir uses this tube-like nose to grab onto things (just like an elephant). Since it’s located above the animal’s mouth, it makes the Tapir really unique and strange-looking. Excited to learn more about the Tapir?

    Tanya Turner

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Nov. 15, 2016)
    What marine animal is a lamprey? The Lamprey is a type of fish. Although it is sometimes called a lamprey eel, that is a misnomer – it’s not a species of eel at all. Although it somewhat looks like an eel because it doesn’t have scales, it actually looks more like a snake, but it is not a species of snake either. A Lamprey is simply a type of jawless fish – but it’s far from being simple. Its most interesting (and creepy) part is its mouth, because it looks like a vacuum with a LOT of teeth. Because of its habit of sucking blood from other sea creatures, it is sometimes called the vampire of the deep. Are you scared yet? Don’t be – Lampreys are not harmful to humans. They can be a pest, yes, but they can’t literally inflict harm to people just because they’re considered “vampires.” In fact, it’s people that Lampreys should be scared of, because as a type of fish, they can also be eaten by humans.
